Abstract: This document summarizes survey responses from a cooperative research project between the USDA Forest Service North Central Experiment Station and Michigan State University's Department of Forestry titled "Valuing the social and economic impacts of fire at the urban-wildland interface".This summary contains all questions asked in the 1994 and 1996 versions of this servey, which was administered face-to-face to over 400 wildland urban interface residents of Crawford County, Michigan, and univariate statistics for responses to those questions. The tables in this data summary are ordered by topic rather than position in the survey instrument; topics appear as page headings. By itself, the summary is not intended to tell a particular story, prove a hypothesis, or drive home a point. Rather, it is envisioned as a repository of survey results at a level of aggregation which may be more useful for gleaning a quick understanding of attitudes, perceptions and preferances than a file of raw data.
